1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Weeds in crop fields pose a serious threat and devastate the overall agro-economy. Popular weed management techniques include manual and mechanical tillage, as well as the application of synthetic herbicides. These are used worldwide but have tremendous harmful side effects on both human health and environmental sustainability. So, alternative techniques are in great demand. The use of invasive alien species, with allelopathic potentialities against obnoxious weeds, has emerged as an alternative strategy for the formulation of environmentally safe bioherbicides. In the present investigation, extracts of an invasive species, Mesosphaerum suaveolens (L.) Kuntze was evaluated for their allelopathic effects on three test species Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek., Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench, and Parthenium hysterophorus L. Hexane-ethyl acetate fraction (1:1 and 1:2) of the methanolic leaf extract of M. suaveolens exhibits maximum inhibition. Allelochemicals affected the T
